Butterflies & Teacups

Good Afternoon! I hope you all have been enjoying the weekend. I have had a lot of fun this weekend with my Grand-daughter who was super happy to hear that her Gammy has recovered enough from her neck surgery to have sleep-overs again.....finally (as Kasey said, lol). She has really missed our slumber parties since my surgery in February. We have had a busy time these past 2 days, especially since she is only 4; and what 4 year old ISN'T busy??
Anyway, on to today's card :) This card is my first attempt at a gate-fold card. Its just your standard gate-fold but I have found another style I will enjoy making again and again. I got the inspiration for the layout from a sketch I found on The Crazy Challenge. With having Kasey here yesterday and today, I didn't get the pictures uploaded in time to enter it in their challenge but, if you want to see the sketch, I have linked it with their name. It really was an awesome sketch, and I'm sure I will use it again.

Lovely gatefold card! The tea cups are sweet! Beautiful cup full of flowers on the cover. Glad you joined us at Simon Says Stamp and Show! So happy for your grand-daughter that she got to come to visit again.

About Me

Hi! My name is Tracey and I live in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Thanks for coming to check out my blog :) I have been happily married to my high school sweetheart for 26 years. We have 2 children; Christopher, 28 years old and Jennifer, 26 years old. We also have a 4 year old grand-daughter and 9 month old grandson. They are my pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I first caught the scrapbooking bug in 2000 and have been hopelessly addicted to it ever since. I especially love to use flowers, ribbon and lace. I am also a Close To My Heart Demonstrator, and I just love this stamping company. Thankfully, my husband is a very understanding man who encourages me to spend time working on this craft. I have also began making cards and using stamps on my projects as well as trying out some sewing on my layouts. When you have a moment, feel free to stop and say 'Hello'. See you later!
